(a) Each agency providing Volunteer Program Development
must conduct or update, or both, an annual needs assessment to determine the
need for volunteers to assist in providing services to older adults within the
community.

volunteers, then the agency shall:

(1) develop and maintain a file of potential
volunteer opportunities;

(2) design written job descriptions for each
volunteer assignment which include job title; job responsibilities; required
training, orientation, or both regarding the assignment; date and time of
assignment; location of assignment; extent of commitment; level of on‑the‑job
supervision needed; and name of supervisor;

(3) promote volunteer involvement through use
of the media and other public relations techniques;
